Taco Bell is introducing its first birria-inspired taco, made with slow-braised, shredded beef that’s folded into a tortilla with melted cheese and served with two types of dip.
The new protein, available Aug. 3 nationwide, is called the grilled cheese dipping taco. In addition to shredded beef and a three-cheese blend of cheddar, mozzarella and pepper jack, the white corn shell is filled with a creamy jalapeño sauce. Instead of the traditional red-tinged beef broth, however, this birria taco will be served with a warm nacho cheese sauce and Taco Bell’s red sauce, which the chain says is “carefully calibrated to achieve the perfect consistency and harmony of flavors with every bite.”
